Thomas john barnardo and Jim jarvis who were they?

Jim Jarvis was a street urchin in the East End of London in the late 19th Century.He had a best freind called Jack Summers also now as carrots who died of starvation behind some crates. In 1866 Thomas Barnardo (who was only 20 years old) arrived in London, from his home in Dublin, to study medicine at the London Hospital before going to work as a missionary in China. Whilst waiting to take up his studies, Barnardo helped out at a Ragged School (a place where anyone and everyone who wanted to 'learn' was welcome). One evening, as the school was closing, one of the young boys lagged behind. This was Jim Jarvis who, on questioning by Thomas, was found to have no mother or father and was sleeping rough on the rooftops along with hundreds of other children. Inititally, Barnardo didn't believe this - until Jim took him to some of the many 'lays' where children slept huddled together for warmth. Seeing this, Thomas realised that there was plenty to be done to help these youngsters and all plans for going to China were abandoned. The following year, Thomas was invited to speak at a Missionary Conference at the Agricultural Hall in Islington. He told of Jim and of the plight of the destitute children. His speech was well received and printed in the Times. Lord Shaftesbury heard the speech and invited Thomas to dine. Together they went out at night to see these waifs and Shaftesbury offered his support. Jim Jarvis went on to become a very successful businessman - but never forgot his debt to Barnardo. So the short answer is that Jim Jarvis was the catalyst for the setting up of the Dr Barnardo's Homes charity which, by the time of Barnardo's death (from angina) in 1905 had rescued some 60,000 children from a life of poverty and destitution.
